Narrative

Employee got off of a trailer with his left leg first and then the right. The employee's left foot slid down the berm in loose gravel, twisting his leg. He was seen on 05/10/10 and through a MRI was diagnosed with a partially torn ACL and was put on restricted duties. No restricted duty so he became a Lost Time.
